What should I study in Brainscape?

Brainscape is the perfect tool for studying any subject that requires that you internalize a lot of knowledge into your brain. We avoid using the word "memorize", since we hope that you will be using a combination of tools to truly understand your topic at hand.

Brainscape flashcards can be created for any subject where knowledge can be broken down into clean Questions and Answers -- using either text, images, sounds, animations, or any combination thereof. This can be for a class at school, a standardized exam, a foreign language, an employee training process, or any number of settings.

Below are several examples of content types that work perfectly for Brainscape:

• Scientific understanding (e.g. Describe the process of peristalsis)
• Technical questions (e.g. How does a pulley work?)
• Vocabulary (e.g. What does 'punctilious' mean?)
• Verb conjugation (e.g. What are the present tense conjugations of 'hablar'?)
• Labeling diagrams (e.g. Where is the femur?)
• Product info for salespeople (e.g. What are the selling points of Model XJ97?)
• Debate prep (e.g. How should you respond if you are accused of ....?)
• Faces & Names (e.g. Which executive is pictured below?)
• Restaurant menu items (e.g. What are the ingredients in a Pasta Milano?)
• History (e.g. Describe the causes that led to World War I)
• Maps (e.g. Where is Baghdad?)
• Police or Military protocols (e.g. What should you do when the perpetrator does X?)
• Compliance training (e.g. When should you submit a Form T-117 to HR?)
• And much more!
